span>G
Well the night came undone like a party dress
                           <span>D
And fell at her feet in a beautiful mess
      <span>G                                 <span>C
The smoke and whisky came home in her curls
                        <span>G           <span>D        <span>G
And crept through the dreams of the barroom girls


       <span>G
She tosses and turns 'cause the sun is unkind
                                   <span>D
And the heat of the day is coming in through the blinds
 <span>G                                             <span>C
Save all your blue skies for the rest of the world
                  <span>G             <span>D         <span>G
'Cause the neon shines for the barrooms girls

     <span>D               <span>G
The barroom girls go by your side
          <span>A                    <span>D
Like the ponies you pass on a carousel ride
     <span>G                                 <span>C
And all of the colours go round in a swirl
                       <span>G           <span>D        <span>G
When you dance in the arms of the barroom girls

<span>G
Now she rolls to her feet 'cause she can't sleep no more
                                 <span>D
And looks at the clothes laying out on the floor
 <span>G                                      <span>C
Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls
                         <span>G           <span>D        <span>G
